Just went to the track

hey guys, just went to the local dragstrip friday night, I thought i'd post my results.
Keep in mind this is 1/8th mile.

RT 0.583
60' 2.454
mph 72.73
ET 9.891


It was imports versus domestics that night.
the fastest drive in import was a toyota 4runner, his ET 8.4

The times are average, you'd run about a 15.1-15.2 in the 1/4. Try to get that 60ft time down into the 2.0-2.2 range. That should drop you to the 9.4-9.7 range in the 1/8.

But anything under 10 is decent.

But some tracks only offer the 1/8, it can still help you master your launches.

The hop is related to many things but I believe the crap Potenzas are probably the biggest cause.
